Supreme Court clears Kettle Moraine boys school site
The Wisconsin Supreme Court reversed a Dane County ruling blocking a state boys school in the Kettle Moraine Forest near Plymouth. It said the transfer of land between state departments does not violate the constitution, while cautioning against diverting forest land from forestry use. The project, linked to a six million dollar appropriation, aims to house about 400 boys, with Wales facility renovations for about 200.
